Thank you Guido.
It'll be nice to see this all come to something.
Thanks to all who contributed to the discussion -- despite this being a
pretty simple function, I learned a lot and far more fully appreciate the
nuance of all of this.
I'll edit the text as you suggest, and then work on a patch -- I'm sure
I'll have questions for Python-dev when I actually do that, but I'll get
started on my own and see how far I get.
